<h3 class="heading3">Setting up Subdomains</h3>
<p class="bodytext">To set up a subdomain:</p>
<ol class="procedurelistnumber"><li class="procedurelistnumber">On your Home page, click the domain name you need.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click the <strong class="specialbold">Subdomains</strong> icon.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click the <strong class="specialbold">Add New Subdomain</strong> icon.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Type the subdomain name as desired. This can be, for example, a topic of your site, organization department, or any other combination of letters, numbers and hyphens (up to 63 characters in length). <p class="listcontinue">The subdomain name must begin with an alphabet character. Subdomain names are case insensitive.</p>
</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">If this subdomain will hold a part of your own Web site that you manage on your own, leave the <strong class="specialbold">Use the FTP user account of the parent domain</strong> option selected. If this subdomain will hold a separate web site that will belong to or will be managed by another person, select the <strong class="specialbold">Create a separate user account for this subdomain</strong> option, and specify the login name and password that will be used for accessing the web space through FTP and publishing web site content.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">If this subdomain will require secure transactions, select the <strong class="specialbold">SSL support</strong> check box. Then, the SSL certificate installed under the parent domain will be used for encrypting transactions. <p class="listcontinue">By default, when you publish the site, you need to upload the web content that should be accessible via secure connections to the <code class="monospace">httpsdocs</code> directory, and the content that should be accessible via plain HTTP, to the <code class="monospace">httpdocs</code> directory. For your convenience, you can choose to publish all content through a single location – <code class="monospace">httpdocs</code> directory, to do this, select the option <strong class="specialbold">Use a single directory for housing SSL and non-SSL content</strong>.</p>
</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Specify the programming languages in which your web site is developed. Otherwise, your web site may not function properly.<p class="listcontinue">For example, if your web site is written mainly in ASP and uses some applications written in PHP, such as those from the Application Vault (<strong class="specialbold">Home </strong>&gt;<strong class="specialbold"> domain name</strong>&gt;<strong class="specialbold"> Application Vault</strong>), select the <strong class="specialbold">ASP support</strong> and <strong class="specialbold">PHP support</strong> check boxes.</p>
</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">If you wish to limit the amount of disk space that can be occupied by web content under this subdomain, type the desired value in megabytes into the <strong class="specialbold">Hard disk quota</strong> box. <p class="listcontinue">When the specified limit is exceeded, you will not be able to add files to the web space, and editing existing files may corrupt them.</p>
</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">To complete the setup, click <strong class="specialbold">OK</strong>. It may take up to 48 hours for the information on new subdomain to spread in the Domain Name System and become available to the Internet users.</li></ol><p class="bodytext"></p>
<p class="bodytext">To publish web content to the subdomain's web space, follow the instruction presented in the <a id="h17157" class="jumptemplate" title="Creating and Publishing a Site" href="15522.htm" target="_self">Publishing a Site</a> section.</p>
